I want a box fan. The kind that stands on a window cill and moves air in or out of the window. This kind of thing;
These things are commonplace in the USA. Does no-one sell them here?

Thanks anyway.
The axial plate fans aren't far off, you just need to build your own simple box...
Coo. That's not a bad idea. Then I could make it fit into the relevant window frame. Thanks!
A good idea here is to get appropriate rubber mounts for the fan and then to put fairly chunky draught excluder foam strips along the edges of the fan.
Otherwise you will have made a nice 50Hz siren which will piss you off.
Would it differ much in effect from e.g.

I presume you really want one of these:
I think so. I'm already using something like that, and it's better than nothing, but on really still nights it just stirs the air rather than "pumping" any into the room.

Not sure what your application is but I've been working with something that looks suspiciously like that fan, and it's bloody noisy.
I think you'd have difficulty finding an appropriate 1.2v 50A 60Hz power supply ...
"Uses a maximum of 47 amps/61 watts on high setting" ;-))

I have not been to college for a while so unless ohms law has been radically changed by some weird effect of quantum physics, 47A does not equal 61W unless its running on 1.2v, I suspect its 0.47A
Someone has done some bad maths - would of course be 120 volts (USA).
Sorry, came up in Google with £ prices so I naturally assumed it was a UK site.
Bloody shopping sites, PITA clogging up Google with stupid results.

Hmmm. The prices in the small print are in US$.
Couldn't agree more. I never ever look at them. Using the "-waffle" switch in Google helps.
TLC 18" floor-level free-standers for half price at the moment (=A331 + VAT). Work out the rest yourself, but this is a cheap starter for a decent fan.
